Project development of wind and solar parks: site selection/securing, obtaining permits, realisation, turnkey construction, repowering, operational management, project acquisition/cooperation.
We put all our energy into every project - from the initial planning to the moment the electricity flows. With perseverance, precision and the ambition to take not the easiest, but the best route.
The UKA Group is an owner-managed company and has pursued a long-term business strategy since it was founded in 1999. Its employees are committed to achieving the best possible results for their projects - in accordance with the highest quality and cost-effectiveness criteria. They consistently drive projects forward, even if they require patience and perseverance due to external circumstances.
The UKA Group is one of the leading project developers for renewable energies in Germany. In 2025, it was able to secure EEG subsidies totalling 766 MW. In the same year, wind turbines with a total capacity of around 350 MW were commissioned in Germany, with a further 1.5 GW under construction.
Independence and excellent creditworthiness ensure a long-term perspective:
The UKA Group has been owner-managed since it was founded: Behind its success is a management team that has been committed for many years, not a listed group or a financial investor. The continuity in the company's management and its financial independence create room for manoeuvre for entrepreneurial decisions and enable a long-term perspective independent of quarterly reports. The Creditreform credit rating agency certifies UKA's excellent creditworthiness, a distinction that only applies to 2% of all companies in Germany.
Complex projects and exemplary solutions
As an expert in wind energy in forests, UKA has already realised numerous projects in commercial forests. The "Göllnitz-Lieskau-Rehain" project has been highlighted by the German onshore wind energy agency as a good practice example of sustainable wind projects in forests. It demonstrates project development in close consultation with local people.
The Group is equally successful in realising repowering projects. To this end, UKA examines whether local conditions such as height or distance regulations, planning law and turbine lighting make it possible to repower potentially suitable wind farms. In 2021, for example, twelve turbines at the Warnsdorf wind farm in Brandenburg were modernised and optimised. The new wind turbines produce electricity with 3.6 times the nominal output of the old turbines and can now supply more than 40.000 households with green electricity
In addition, UKA develops and successfully implements nature conservation compensation and replacement measures as part of wind energy projects. The "Schäferwiese" project in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania compensates for a large area of the wind turbines at the Parchim wind farm, which were planned and built by UKA.
Local partnership and global presence
The UKA Group also provides support in cooperation projects as a financial and realisation-strong partner in all phases of a project - regardless of the type of turbine. Flexible and situation-specific cooperation models enable collaboration on an equal footing and joint shaping of the energy transition.
The UKA Group is currently expanding its business activities in other European markets. UKA Iberia is already active from Madrid. Planning offices have been opened in Italy (Rome) and Poland (Szczecin). In addition, UKA North America in Florida and Illinois and UKA Chile in Santiago de Chile are driving forward promising renewable energy projects in North, Central and South America.
